Charge up to $5000 connection fee for households and business for superfast broadband

Make people outside the cities pay more for broadband

“The Federal Labor Government is delivering the NBN to households and businesses across Australia at no cost, because we believe everyone deserves access to the NBN no matter where they live,” Mr Albanese said.

“The Liberal candidate for Grayndler needs to come clean and say whether they support Tony Abbott’s plan to charge $5,000 for families to connect to superfast broadband.

“The Liberals’ anti-NBN plan would disconnect Australia from a high speed broadband future, take us back to a 100 year old copper wire past and strangle the future strength of Australia’s economy.

“Only Labor will build the NBN Australia needs now and into the future.”
